Digital transformation (digitization) of the financial industry is the reason behind the deep change in the models of interaction between actors in the financial market. However, a generally accepted interpretation of digitalization has not yet been proposed. The paper discusses the distinctive features of the financial industry digitalization and uses them as a basis for offering a unified description of the nature of this transformation. The methodological framework is the notion of three types of innovation – technology, organization, and product. The research methods used in the article are analysis and synthesis. The paper demonstrates how the types of innovation determine the nature of the digital transformation of the financial industry and how they are manifested in various digital financial products. Digital transformation of finance includes two aspects: (a) Fintech revolution, i.e. technological companies entering the financial market, and (b) adoption of innovative digital technologies by traditional financial companies. We propose the 4U model to describe the marketing aspect of the financial industry digital transformation and introduce the concept of flexible finance as a way to provide financial services that suggest lower liability of financial institutions. The research results show that, firstly, digital transformation of the financial industry is not limited to the technological aspect but also includes organizational and product-related elements. Secondly, the trends in the financial industry digitalization are similar to those in the digital transformation of the global economy.

Главная тенденция отраслей национальной экономики - цифровизация. Финансовая отрасль кардинально перестроила свои бизнес-процессы и стала драйвером цифрового развития. Цифровая трансформация банков осуществляется с помощью экосистем. Банковская экосистема предполагает комплексный подход к формированию инфраструктуры с помощью отдельных элементов. Цифровизация полностью переформатировала работу игроков финансового сектора и повлияла на организацию и функционирование банков, финансовые услуги и продукты. Средним банкам в период трансформации бизнес-процессов под влиянием информационных технологий сложно реагировать на запросы клиентов и конкурировать с крупными игроками финансового рынка. Наибольшую эффективность в период диджитализации бизнеса демонстрируют крупные банки, они быстрее приспосабливаются новым условиям работы и имеют большую скорость внедрения современных IT-технологий. Банк ВТБ - является одним из числа самых активных участников всех государственных программ направленных на поддержку и кредитование среднего и малого бизнеса. Финансовый институт большое внимание уделяет своей цифровой трансформации. В ходе проведенного исследования установлено, что с помощью реализации направлений в сфере цифровых технологий банк не только осуществляет обслуживание клиентов более быстро и безопасно, но и значительно снижает издержки совершенствуя свою ИТ-архитектуру. Внедрение одного искусственного интеллекта в 2020 году позволило Банку ВТБ снизить издержки в объеме 1,2 млрд. руб. (137 моделей используются в бизнес-процессах всех глобальных бизнес-линий). The main trend of the national economy sectors is digitalization. The financial industry has radically restructured its business processes and has become a driver of digital development. Digital transformation of banks is carried out with the help of ecosystems. The banking ecosystem involves an integrated approach to the formation of infrastructure with the help of individual elements. Digitalization has completely reshaped the players in the financial sector and affected the organization and functioning of banks, financial services and products. During the transformation of business processes under the influence of information technology, it is difficult for medium-sized banks to respond to customer requests and compete with major players in the financial market. Large banks demonstrate the greatest efficiency in the period of business digitalization, they adapt faster to new working conditions and have a greater speed of implementation of modern IT technologies. VTB Bank is one of the most active participants in all government programs aimed at supporting and lending to medium and small businesses. The financial institution pays great attention to its digital transformation. In the course of the study, it was found that by implementing digital technologies, the bank not only provides customer service more quickly and safely, but also significantly reduces costs by improving its IT architecture. The introduction of one artificial intelligence in 2020 allowed VTB Bank to reduce costs in the amount of 1.2 billion rubles. (137 models are used in the business processes of all global business lines).

In this chapter, an analysis is presented of the conditions for effective marketing of financial services/products in different cultural environments. It is argued that financial services/products are not like other conventional goods and services/products: they exhibit special characteristics (i.e. intangible and risky). Thus, they should not be marketed to all financial consumers alike for they incur risks that are unsuitable for all consumers. Any associated capital loss may lead not only to consumer reaction but also might impair the normal operation of the financial market as a whole. Marketing efforts owe to take into consideration these characteristics and risks and effectively integrate marketing strategies with the carefully regulated issuance and distribution of financial products/services. Effective marketing of financial services requires a concerted effort on behalf of governments and financial service/product providers. Finally, marketing efforts must take into consideration the cultural environment within which marketing takes place.

In the age of digital technologies, the main factor of competitiveness in the financial market is “digital capital”. Using developments in the field of information technology, banks change the format and methods of providing their products and services, participate in the provision of services that are not typical for them. In such circumstances, banks have to completely transform their business and build it on the basis of platforms. Changes in the operating conditions of the financial market entail changes in the rules of conduct on it and approaches to its regulation. Investing in technologies, creating and developing ecosystems require significant financial investments from banks, which not all banks can afford. This research analyzes the possibilities of using digital capital by the most successful Russian banks in building and developing ecosystems. The main models of banking ecosystems used in Russian practice are systematized. The necessity of state participation in financial support of the digital transformation of the banking sector is justified. The steps taken by the Bank of Russia in this direction are evaluated. The article summarizes the Bank of Russia’s efforts to develop approaches to financial market regulation to ensure information security and prevent financial isolation. Steps taken by the regulator to ensure an equal access to financial services for all citizens, equal opportunities for competition of various financial market players.

Digital finance has piqued the curiosity of academics, students, and institutions all around the globe for more than a decade. Innovative financial services companies are offering a wide range of new financial products and new ways of interacting with customers via digital finance (Fintech). Research on finance and information systems has thus examined these shifts as well as the implications of technological advancements on the financial industry.

We conducted a content analysis of 343 articles based on the discovered clusters, finding research gaps and suggesting actionable areas for further study. The results offer a solid path for future research in this area. We discuss the significance of the aforementioned publications and articles as well as potential areas of future study. The next step is to analyze the citation linkages between the most important articles to identify how they are related to one another. For financial technology research, the study looks at the way they are organized. The research is concerned with the roles of Fintech and the limits of research in digital financing. We point out potential routes for researchers to take to expand on current knowledge while also seeking possibilities for new, interesting, and creative research that adds to the expansion of the topic of research.
